I guess one simple way to detect the majority of these helpers would
be to filter all entries from /proc/allocinfo which originate from
header files.

and it finds our example:

         832       13 include/linux/jbd2.h:1607 func:jbd2_alloc_inode

Interestingly the inlined functions which are called from multiple
places will have multiple entries with the same file+line:

           0        0 include/linux/dma-fence-chain.h:91
func:dma_fence_chain_alloc
           0        0 include/linux/dma-fence-chain.h:91
func:dma_fence_chain_alloc
           0        0 include/linux/dma-fence-chain.h:91
func:dma_fence_chain_alloc
           0        0 include/linux/dma-fence-chain.h:91
func:dma_fence_chain_alloc
           0        0 include/linux/dma-fence-chain.h:91
func:dma_fence_chain_alloc

So, duplicate entries can be also used as an indication of an inlined allocator.
I'll go chase these down and will post a separate patch converting them.
